YMMV / Buck Rogers

• Adaptation Displacement: The franchise began with a novella, and the title "Buck Rogers" was first used for a newspaper comic, but most people know it from the '30s film serial or the '70s TV series.
• The Scrappy: Ah, Twiki.
• Values Dissonance: The early novels portray the Han as stereotypically decadent, making mention that their values were entirely contrary to those of 'the American race'.
